Hi yold_. It is made heads-down anti-social work by simple minded managers. They create infantilized environment that self-select for devs that don't like to talk to people.

Talking to people is trusted to "big boys" from business. You've listed the roles. Business big boys will sell complexity to clients through IT woo wooo. More complexity - more revenue.

I guess the most useful understanding from my post is that it is by design. It didn't "just" happen. Corporations bread them and make it a norm. This proliferates an understanding of a dev as an infantile that plays with himself.

Thank you for showing me I probably didn't articulate that understanding well enough.
